Fixture Analysis
Mariehamn welcome EIF to Wiklöf Holding Arena in Veikkausliiga (Relegation Round - 3). Kick-off is Saturday 28 September 2024 at 16:00 UK time.
Form Analysis
Looking at their last 10 matches, Mariehamn stand at 1W 1D 8L — 0.40 PPG. Last five: L L W L L. They are averaging 0.60 goals per game and conceding 2.10 — a modest attacking output that tempers optimism on the Over 2.5 market. However, 2.10 goals conceded per game is a concern — opposing attacks have exploited them regularly. 1 clean sheet from 10 outings (10%).
In front of their own supporters, Mariehamn have posted 2W 4D 4L from their last 10 home games — 1.00 PPG. At home they are averaging 0.90 goals scored and 1.50 conceded per game. Their home PPG of 1.00 is noticeably stronger than their overall 0.40 — Mariehamn are significantly better at home than their overall form suggests.
Across their last 10 games, EIF have recorded 1W 2D 7L — 0.50 PPG. Last five: L L D D W. Their scoring rate of 0.70 per game is modest, conceding 2.80 — not a side to back heavily on the Over 2.5 from their form alone. Conceding 2.80 per game is a high rate — their defence has been exposed regularly.
When travelling, EIF have posted 2W 2D 6L from their last 10 away outings — 0.80 PPG. Away from home they average 0.90 goals scored and 2.40 conceded per game. BTTS has landed in 60% of their away games — meaningful support for the Yes angle in this specific context.
The form figures are too closely matched to derive a directional pick: Mariehamn 0.40 PPG, EIF 0.50 PPG. Look to other data sets to build the analysis.
H2H Record
There is little to separate the sides in our head-to-head data. From 2 H2H matches, Mariehamn have won 2, EIF 0, with 0 draws — a balanced record that offers no clear steer on its own. With only 2 H2H matches to go on, treat this as a light input.
These two sides have produced goals at a healthy rate, averaging 4.0 per game across the 2 H2H matches we hold. That scoring profile supports the Over 2.5 angle. The most recent of those, on 19 Jun 2024, ended Mariehamn 2–1 EIF — a Mariehamn win.
With the win record balanced, the strongest H2H signal is in the goals market — at 4.0 goals per game, Over 2.5 is the cleaner angle from the head-to-head data.
In-Play Data
Mariehamn trading profile (last 24 games, 11 of them at home): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 64% of their matches in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 60% of the time; BTTS occurs in 54% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 64% of games (home games); they fail to score in 42% of games.
EIF trading profile (last 24 games, 11 of them away): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 73% of their matches in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 86% of the time; two or more arrive in the second half on 71% of those occasions; of the 6 games they led at half-time, they failed to win 67%; BTTS occurs in 64% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 73% of games (away games).
From a combined perspective, both sides have high BTTS rates — Mariehamn 54% and EIF 67% — which reinforces the BTTS Yes angle from in-play data. Over 2.5 goals is well-supported by both sides' in-play profiles (Mariehamn 67% | EIF 67%).
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects Mariehamn 1.71 xG and EIF 1.07 xG. These expected goals figures are the primary input: they feed a goal-probability matrix across all scoreline combinations to derive the result and market probabilities below. Underlying strength ratings: Mariehamn attack 0.725 / defence 1.110 | EIF attack 0.772 / defence 1.463. League average goals — home 1.616 / away 1.248. Mariehamn's attack rating of 0.725 is below the league average, which holds their xG down at 1.71. EIF's defence rating of 1.463 (above 1 = concedes more than average) is pushing Mariehamn's projected output up. EIF's attack rating of 0.772 is below the league average, which holds their xG down at 1.07. Data: built from Mariehamn's last 44 games and EIF's last 22.
Result probabilities: Mariehamn 52% | Draw 25% | EIF 23%. Fair-value odds: Mariehamn 1.93 | Draw 3.98 | EIF 4.34. Mariehamn hold a narrow Poisson edge at 52% — the draw (25%) is close enough to merit draw-inclusive market consideration.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 53% | BTTS Yes probability 54% | Total xG 2.78. Over/Under 2.5 is close to a coin-flip at 53%/47% — the total xG of 2.78 sits near the 2.5 margin; this is a low-edge market from a Poisson standpoint. BTTS Yes at 54% is only a slight lean — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.
Analysis Verdict
On the Poisson output, Mariehamn are the pick at 52% — moderate model lean. With a 25% draw probability, Draw No Bet on Mariehamn offers a more defensible entry point than the straight win.
Poisson projects 2.78 total expected goals, pointing to Over 2.5 at 53% probability — reasonable conviction, supported by recent form (Mariehamn's last 10 home games and EIF's last 10 away games) averaging 2.8 goals per game.
The Poisson model's BTTS call is Yes at 54%. Form rates corroborate — both teams scored in: Mariehamn 50% (last 10 home games) | EIF 60% (last 10 away games).

📝 Match Report
How It Unfolded
Mariehamn beat EIF 3-0 at Wiklöf Holding Arena, Relegation Round - 3, in the Veikkausliiga. With the result on the board, the sections below measure it against everything the model and the numbers projected in advance.
The Model vs The Result
The Poisson model went into this projecting Mariehamn 1.71 xG and EIF 1.07 xG, a combined 2.78. The scoreboard read 3-0 for 3 actual goals. Mariehamn beat their projection by 1.3 — clinical relative to the chances the model priced in. EIF landed 1.1 under their projected return. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Mariehamn attack 0.72 / defence 1.11 against EIF attack 0.77 / defence 1.46, drawn from 44/22 games (CurrentSeason).
On the result, the model split it Mariehamn 52% | Draw 25% | EIF 23%, with Mariehamn to win its most likely call at 52%. That is exactly how it finished — the model's leading outcome was vindicated.
Goals & Markets
The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 53%. The game delivered 3, so it went over — a call the model got right. Over 1.5 had been 77% and landed. On both teams to score, the model sat at 54% and the match did not — a miss on BTTS. Historically the two sides average 67% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Mariehamn 67%, EIF 67%), a base rate that agreed with today's over. Their combined BTTS history runs at 60%, which did not match the one-sided outcome.
Trading Patterns vs Reality
Mariehamn's trading profile (24 games, 11 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 54% of their matches — today it did not.
EIF's trading profile (24 games, 11 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 67% of their matches — today it did not; they fail to score in 29% of games, a blank that repeated today.
Form vs Result
The form lines were close — Mariehamn 0.83 PPG, EIF 0.71 PPG — offering no strong steer, and the Mariehamn win broke the near-deadlock. Mariehamn (home/away splits) scored 3 against a 1.09 average — above their attacking norm and conceded 0 against a 1.55 average — tighter than their form line. EIF (home/away splits) managed 0 against a 0.91 scoring average — below par going forward.
Verdict
Grading the result against the stored data, 2 of 3 pre-match signals came in: result (hit), Over 2.5 (hit), BTTS (miss). The model got the gist right while missing on the margins.
